🦺Playing it Close to the "Vest"

When we talk about the DeFi space in general, a commonly used word is "vesting". Vesting describes the process of locking one’s asset, in this case tokens, up for a predetermined amount of time, allowing the user to gain interest or annual percentage yield (APY) on the amount of tokens that they stake. In the real world, this is similar to the use of a CD account. You deposit money into it and agree to keep it there for a certain amount of time with a penalty being assessed for taking it out early. Money locked in a CD will earn at a greater interest rate than a traditional savings account would. In a crypto, vesting is one of the greatest tools a project development team has at their disposal to ensure stability of the price of their token and to protect the investments of the holders.

We took vesting very seriously with Seeds To Bees, and created vesting schedules for the private presale as well as for the team and for any contractors being paid by the project. No Team member will have access to any of their tokens until 6 months is up, at which time only 25% will become available. This, and many other measures, have been taken to ensure that the project will sustain its growth in the early days and will maintain long-term, steady and strong growth.
